  1. PHYS16 – Lecture 22 Circular Motion and Rotation October 29, 2010 http://xkcd.com

  2. Circular Motion and Rotation • Circular Motion • Angular disp., velocity, and acceleration • Centripetal force • Circular motion kinematics • Rotation • Inertia • Kinetic Energy • Angular momentum • Torque • Simple Machines II – gears, belts, and levers

  3. Circular Motion and Centripetal Force last time…

  4. Polar Coordinates http://en.citizendium.org/images/thumb/1/18/Polar_coordinates_.png/250px-Polar_coordinates_.png

  5. Angular displacement, velocity, and acceleration • Angular displacement – • Arc length – • Angular velocity (ω) – • Angular acceleration (α) – • Linear acceleration( ) –

  6. Angular displacement, velocity, and acceleration • Uniform circular motion – α = 0, only centripetal accel. (aC) • Non-uniform circular motion – both aT and aC aT aC http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/22/Nonuniform_circular_motion.svg/293px-Nonuniform_circular_motion.svg.png

  7. Centripetal Force • Force keeping an object moving in a circle http://astronomy.swin.edu.au/cms/imagedb/albums/scaled_cache/centripedal-316x300.png

  8. Practice Question #1 • What is the anglular displacement of the Earth during winter? Assume winter is ¼ of the year and that the Earth’s orbit can be approximated by a circle. • 0.785 rad • 1.57 rad • 3.14 rad • None of the above

  9. Practice Question #2 • A CD is spinning with a constant angular velocity. From last time we know that the linear velocity of a point on the edge of the CD is greater than a point in the middle. What about the centripetal acceleration? • Centripetal acc. is greater at the edge • Centripetal acc. is greater in the middle • Centripetal acc. is equal for both points • There is not enough information

  10. Discussion Question • I have a ball attached to a string that runs through a tube and is attached to a mass at one end. I hold the tube and rotate the ball in uniform circular motion while holding the mass. Then I let the mass go. What happens to the angular velocity of the ball? (Increase, Decrease, Stay the same)

  11. Circular Motion Kinematics

  12. Angular kinematics – same as linear • Assume α=constant

  13. Example Question: The Centrifuge • A centrifuge rotates with an angular speed of 3600 rpm. Then it is switched off and it rotates 60 times before coming to rest. What was the angular acceleration that made it stop? http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/0/0d/Tabletop_centrifuge.jpg

  14. Example Question: The Discus • A discus thrower with arm radius of 1.2 m starts from rest and then starts to rotate with an angular acceleration of 2.5 rad/s2. How long does it take for the throwers hand to reach 4.7 rad/s?

  15. Rotation

  16. Rotational Inertia • In linear motion we just care about mass • In rotational motion we care about how mass is distributed so we need rotational inertia (I) formulas pg. 320 • Which has more rotational inertia? A) B) A does!

  17. Rotational Kinetic Energy • For rotational kinetic energy we use rotational inertia instead of mass and angular velocity instead of linear velocity • What is kinetic energy of the earth? Mass = 5.98E24 kg and radius=6.37E6 m.

  18. Example Question: Rolling vs. Sliding • Which has more energy: a cylinder that slides down a ramp with a speed of v0 or a cylinder that rolls down a ramp with the same speed? • Cylinder that slides • Cylinder that rolls • Both are equal • There is not enough information

  19. Angular Momentum • Angular momentum (L) – momentum of a rotating object • Cross product like the dot product is a way to multiply vectors, except cross product gives vector not scalar • Direction of cross product is given by right hand rule

  20. Example Question: Ice Skating • In a spin, why do ice skaters decrease their angular velocity when they hold their arms out? Kristi Yamaguchi L=Iω Holding arms out increases I. If L stays the same, and I increases then ω decreases. http://www.corbisimages.com/images/67/7760610C-6DF3-4A39-ACD6-C3CDEFF73296/PN015983.jpg

  21. Torque • Torque (τ) – a force that acts at a distance, usually causing rotation • Units = Joules • Vector quantity, direction given by right hand rule

  22. Example: Jet turbine • The turbine of a jet engine has a moment of inertia of 25 kg∙m2. If the turbine is accelerated uniformly from rest to an angular speed of 150 rad/s in a time of 25 s, what is the torque?

  23. Main Points • Parameters for circular motion/ rotation basically have linear equivalents • θis related to x, ωis related to v, αis related to a • I is related to m • L is related to p, L=Iω=rpsin(θ) • τ is related to F, τ=Iα =rFsin(θ)
